Abstract

The present invention relates to a product and a method capable of securing a window assembly or a door assembly, so that in case the window or door, such as a pane in the window or door, is broken it is not possible to open the window or door because the securing mechanism according to the invention blocks the window or door from being opened. The invention may further provide for blocking all or a selection of windows and doors in the house, as well as for connection to alarms, such as existing alarms in the house. The invention includes an actuator actuating when a locking signal is forwarded. Said locking signal may be a radio signal, an electric or electronic signal, or a mechanical signal.

Claims

1. A burglar-proof window assembly or door assembly of a house, such as a window or door assembly comprising at least one pane surrounded by a frame, said window or door comprising

an opening and closing mechanism of the window or door, and

at least one securing unit, said securing unit comprising

an actuator, said actuator actuating when a locking signal is forwarded to the actuator,

locking means capable of shifting between at least two positions, an un-locked position and a locked position,

wherein the locking means is arranged so that when the actuator is actuated then the actuator causes the locking means to shift from an un-locked position to the locked position in the receiving means and the window or door is blocked from being opened by use of the opening and closing mechanism of the window or door, and wherein said actuator is power supplied from a battery positioned in the securing unit.

2. The burglar-proof window or door according to claim 1, wherein the locking signal is a radio signal.

3. The burglar-proof window or door according to claim 1, wherein the locking signal is a mechanical signal.

5. The burglar-proof window or door according to claim 1, wherein said actuator actuates due to a locking signal forwarded from a central computer.

6. The burglar-proof window or door according to claim 1, wherein a locking signal is forwarded to the actuator due to activation by a user.

7. The burglar-proof window or door according to claim 1, wherein the window or door comprises receiving means capable of receiving the locking means in the locked position.

11. The burglar-proof window or door according to claim 1, wherein the actuator is a mechanical actuator or an electromechanical actuator.

12. The burglar-proof window or door according to claim 1, wherein the actuator comprises a microprocessor and at least one radio transmitter/receiver.

15. The burglar-proof window or door according to claim 1, wherein the actuator comprises a motor-gear-lock.

16. The burglar-proof window or door according to claim 1, wherein the securing unit further comprises a detector.

17. The burglar-proof window or door according to claim 1, wherein the securing unit further comprises a micro switch.

26. The burglar-proof window or door according to claim 1, wherein the security unit is connected to an acoustic alarm.

27. The burglar-proof window or door according to claim 1, wherein the security unit is connected to a central unit.

28. The burglar-proof window or door according to claim 27, wherein the central unit is capable of activating the actuator of other windows and/or doors than the one being broken into or attempted being broken into.

29. The burglar-proof window or door according to claim 27, wherein the central unit is connected to a smoke or fire alarm.
